It's so pretty! I wasn't expecting the red of the vinyl to have such a blue undertone but I love it

 

Congrats!

Can’t wait for this. Mine has yet to ship. Listening to ARTPOP on blue vinyl from UO and it sounds amazing. I have no doubt they remastered TFM for the boxset vinyl release, and have a feeling ARTPOP has gotten the same treatment. I suspect BTW will as well!

Really. I heard from people that the UO mastering was terrible and the songs skip a lot?

I can't speak to non TFM vinyls but The Fame Monster one sounds incredible.  It's my preferred way to list to the album now

Please report!

Yea, that would be a nice gesture with that album. Not us still hoping for an actual cover 8 months later...

Gonna be honest it sounds strange?  Like strange enough that I'm worried something might be up with my set up.  There's definitely good depth to her vocals but something with the instrumentals is off.  Gonna have to do some trouble shooting so I can figure out if it's me, just this disk being wonky or something else

Is this for the Chromatica vinyl?

Oh ok. My pressing of BTW is from europe and it sounds pretty bad, not gonna lie. I think they were just poorly pressed, I checked the comments of discogs and a lot of people had issues with it too. 

[NotDoctor PronounsHe/they]

Put on my TFM record to test my set up and holy sh!t the production on BR just pops so much it's so f-ing good

But that also means this BTW press might be f-ed 😬  I'll be interested to see what people say on Twitter and Discogs.  I think it might just be my Side 1 but we'll see.  MTN, BTW, GH, Judas and American were rough but Hair seems fine 

@HeavyMetalLover did you order the red BTW ones as well? I'm hoping it's just my disks being defective

I did! No shipping notice yet. I’ll let you know though!

TF/TFM sound incredible. As does ARTPOP! I have high hopes for BTW.

After doing a lot of testing it looks like my Side 1 is just fücked.  Gonna try and get it replaced

Other than that, I don't think it's as much of a jump as TFM was but specifically the bridge in HML and Electric Chapel in general sound fantastic

My status: I’m currently working on getting Miley Cyrus her discography. Also I was already working on Anastacia, I want hers complete as well.

And then I’m gonna go for Kelis and Beyoncé.

Does anyone know where to get the ARTPOP Walmart CD for cheap? (foiled and non foiled) I literally cannot find it anywhere for under $35 dollars and thats without shipping

If I see an opportunity I go for it immediately! I got Beyonce(self titled) and Lemonade! 

[Dirkje PronounsShe/her/hers]

Yup! My two Bey albums have arrived. The newer, the harder the CD is to find. So now that I have Lemonade and self titled, I'm pretty confident I'm gonna complete her discography!
